After leaving a placeholder on the page for more than two years, I have finally got around to writing up some of the American made fly reels in the Museum. I have made a start with Skeleton and simple Raised Pillar reels though cage and drum reels will follow in the near future.

​In the coming days up to New Year I also plan to relaunch the "Book of the Month" feature, using titles more relevant to the overall theme of the site. Watch this space for news of the revisions.

Researching these reels also led to another chapter in the "Transtlantic Connections" page, with a bona-fide skeleton reel from Holland.
